[Record of After-images]
[ October 28, Tuesday 23:40 │ Closed museum underground storage ]
As I pushed the heavy iron door, cold air mixed with the smell of mold rushed deep into my lungs. Inside the storage, dozens of mirrors covered in cloth stood in a row.
Light dust settled on the cloth, and only one mirror at the very back had its cloth slipped down, revealing its surface.
I slowly brushed the surface of the mirror with my fingertip, which was wearing a white glove. The moment it touched the cold glass, my fingertip grew numb, and a faint pattern began to spread on the surface by itself.
A small sound flowed out from the mirror. It was a short, faint sound, like someone's last breath.
My eyes grew hot, and a single streak of black tears slowly flowed down. I did not wipe it away.
You : Just now. I felt like someone saw me from inside the mirror
You's voice trembled.
Without taking my eyes off the mirror, I spoke lowly.
"If you saw it, it's already too late. Do not leave my side until three a.m. That is the only condition to save you."
In the storage where there was no wind, a single piece of cloth slowly slid and fell to the floor."Three hours until three. It must be finished within that time. Even if my hands tremble, do not grab them. The sealing will be disrupted."
